10:30 pm
that there is a new crisis. this is a world crisis that brewing and it has everything to do with the us. i don't know if you've heard, but it's reached. are you ready for this number? because it's an outstanding number. $34.00 trillion dollars. $34.00 trillion dollars, that's the us step looking what just happened by the way, in the japanese stock market and some developing news this morning. and all eyes will be on wall street this morning. here's the deal. japan stock market is taking a hard fall right now. experiencing it's worst a slump in nearly 40 years dropping by nearly 12 percent. so let me tell you about how we got to this point. all right, the, the us that has been compounding due to the fact that we spend way more that we take in simple, right? so how do we make up the difference? we borrow money by giving people essentially bonds. and that is why there is a real concern that this us debt bubble is about the 1st. and what it does,
10:31 pm
it's going to have a huge global implication. why? because if we can't pay down our debt, the countries who lent us this money by buying these bonds will also go under. and we're talking about a lot of money, add a lot of countries and most of the money, by the way. and this is interesting. most of the money comes from our top allies around the world. so now i think in terms of, you know, the position of the different countries in the world who are these top allies, right? i mean, think about this are bearing here in the united states. now stands at a 130 percent of our g d p. imagine if you ran your household budget that way within 20 years, it's expected to be to 150 percent of our g d p. imagine owing to 150 percent of what your house it broke or going broke.
10:32 pm
now why is that global thrive? right? what's, what's the worst of the world have to do with us? not being able to perhaps pay its bills or being in debt? well, what do you think we owe most of that money to that we may at some point here, maybe even so not be able to pay back our allies who have bought $7.00 trillion dollars of our debt. $7600000.00 of our debt. let me, let me show you what we're talking about here. the one we owe is the most to, oh, what a coincidence? japan. one trillion dollars. now you know why their stock market is crashing and part the u. k. they own $716000000000.00 of our debt locks in burg accounts for $371000000000.00. canada who catches our cold. when we sneeze, they own $321000000000.00 of our debt. see,
10:33 pm
they all saw the us was a good investment, but now they're having 2nd thoughts and they're all crucial allies. by the way, look at japan, japan is the us proxy and asia, the u. k. canada that's made. all right, so get me back on camera. if you can, but how did the us get into this predicament? right? short answer, defense spending for endless wars that we did not win, which we may now have to re think. and i pulled together this is i look for this and found and for you, cuz i want to share this with you. i pulled 2023 numbers around the defense numbers, right. let me show it to you. last year, the us about $916000000000.00 on national defense. that's almost a trillion dollar defense. that is more than the next 9 countries combine. that is about one 6th of the federal budget. and it accounts for 40 percent of all
10:34 pm
global military spending. and where did we spend it? we spent it in the rock, we submitted it. i've got a stand alone, just those 2 places. accounts for 8 trillion dollars. got almost nothing and returned except, well, hate chaos. and repudiation maybe. and then we spent another 2 trillion dollars on the fake war on terror against the, i guess, a faceless enemy, right? the interest alone that we're going to be paying as a result of that, which i just shared with you. but just paying down the debt on that alone. it's gonna be about $6.00 trillion dollars in 2056 point 5 trillion dollars in interest payments. if you're a us tax payer, which i am by the way, this is my pocket that they're reaching into right here. mean that's coming out of us. and it's just not sustainable, it truly is about the blow you don't mind at all. i can say that as i think through this situation that you've not been talking about for
10:35 pm
a couple of days is about this uh, the next time that need a trump or bite in or harris or president asked whoever the hell is going to be in the future, so it says to us, as you know, american citizens and tax payers, we need another $100000000.00 for i don't know ukraine, south, china, sea, israel, whatever. i mean, maybe it's time. we start saying, wait a minute, we can't afford it. right? yeah, rick, i don't think we've had any president in the united states in the better part of the 20th, the last half of the 20th century. and now in the 21st century, that has been able to say anything like that. we've been on a runaway spending spree ever since the ninety's, you know, the heyday of good old ninety's. right. but i think what's part of what's triggering this massive meltdown around the world and people are freaking out, especially our finance ears, over in japan. is that just last week?
10:36 pm
there's something called the psalm rule. yeah. so the psalm is, is that an obama era economist who only in 2019 figured out that there was this pattern that goes back to the 19 fifties and sixties and has been true ever since. it doesn't necessarily mean it's guaranteed to be true. but she states that, as she says, if it says that the, the initial phase of a recession starts when the 3 month moving average of us unemployment rate is at least half a percentage point higher than the 12 month low. so this is kind of this rolling movement and we triggered that as of last week after the jobs reports. so as we enter into, you know, the, the final less than a 100 days out ahead of the selection. it boils down to the bread and butter kitchen table conversations, rec, and people. all these see, they don't care about what's happening in the new k. they don't really care about what's happening in the down. what they care about is that literally their eggs are
10:37 pm
costing a gazillion dollars. their gas is costing them a gazillion dollars. yeah. heating and cooling, costing them a gazillion dollars. where's all their tax money going? there's no relief. that's what they care about. but then when you look at recession on top of it, oh boy, that's going to be a huge problem. come november. well, yeah, and a lot of the other countries who are not our allies who don't owe us this money with the possible exception of maybe china are kind of looking their lips and going. okay. yeah, i'm sorry, by the bricks. countries for example, horse i, you guys are getting yourself into one hell of a whole. we told you not to do this, but you keep doing it. so let's see what happens after that. let's go to the next place that you should see here that your tax payer dollars, maybe going to next, right? you're going to say, well where the, how is that? right? but i'm going to tell you in a minute why i'm saying that, but 1st, here's the situation. we're talking about bangladesh, the countries liter shake. i've seen a step down. i'm it writing, that's now won't be increased still happening. we're watching it, the countries rudderless right now off in our state department sees
10:38 pm
a situation like that as a me, an opportunity to strike and take over. i fear. so look at this. i mean this, this has just been ongoing. there are 300 people have. so far, been killed and the riding has muslims attacking in dues and then some enders attacking back india, which is next door is concerned enough to recall that citizens stop all slides to and from the country. india, as a majority can do nation bangladesh as a majority. muslim nation, why am i concerned that our government is going to get involved in this situation? well, let me show you somebody. i had put them up that look at this guy right here. his name is mohammed unit, so we got them with you see mohammed units. he has all the characteristics of a state department plant in the form of a one white dog who we installed a bit as well. petro portion code, for example, who we installed in the ukraine. he this guy is us educated us connected to about
10:39 pm
the state department. even the white house product at the top university is a professor in the tennessee look aside from the future leader with ties to washington. what else is the recipe for a co in places like venezuela and ukraine? why, of course, an uprising, civil unrest here is eunice talking about the big job. you go to the street and read your boy's children by kill. you still continue with the young people came for one of these to police against the but i'm going back to the against the army was treating them with getting them every day. even the yesterday there was a fusion of somebody. so when people, until yesterday, it's going to before and as you finally decided to step down because this one, the whole country was waiting for the minding dispute street from us the pickup date and leave us alone because he has tortured us. she has it read this country unbelievable for people and all the corruptions us done,
10:40 pm
and all the terrible things we have done to people denying the rights to people. the right to vote. we didn't have any election for the last week that does have electric gimme of the sheets. and these young people, these are the 2, turned off the top of additional $170000000.00 people. does it too young people at the hope they should never have bought a nice thing though, is that you? yes. a has a how many cars i look to him? does any well what, what do you think of this? but no, i mean look, i'm not saying anything i'm doing. i don't think anything has happened relation related to the state department yet. it just, i'm so used to seeing this recipe. you know what i mean? well, rick, i'm going to quote you from earlier this week. you said when it walks like a duck and quacks like a dock, it's a duck. probably probably a dock, but we don't know. right. i mean, this is, i think the 1st that many people are learning about this man who was born in bangladesh and spent much of his younger formative years here in the united states
10:41 pm
of if, mr. eunice, or maybe we call him dr. us. and if we looked at his resume in a vacuum, it sounds quite impressive. he received a full break scholarship to study economics at vanderbilt. he got his ph. d. there sounds like a really smart guy. he kind of, in many ways you could look at him as sort of the band, golly bernie sanders. right. and you have some 80 something year old man that for whatever reason seems to just the use the you voters or would be voters, are excited about this, this old guy that's all tied into the west, specifically the united states. but if you zoom out and you look at this from a geo political perspective, right, that lands on, right, got to look at the us, them going well. this is interesting for the united states because then this helps them kind of counter the both india and china in that region of the world where the us has been losing a lot of grip in that area. so this gives them
10:42 pm
a great opportunity. if you look at it that way, course, but you know who, who he really is. we don't know. we do know that he is this nobel prize guy for giving out these micro loans that are tied to the i m f and tied to with, with, with her know sounds kinda low shortly to me, which has also come with the question. okay. finally, i want to tell you about interesting how people we know or think we know, and maybe don't. now the presidential election in the us lately. as you know, i've been very critical, a former president trump. and his campaign really seems to be taking the baby way too often and is doing and saying things that he probably is not helping him else by saying, well, not to be outdone, his opponent now seems to be saying, i can top that in, in this video. that i'm about to show you that was released yesterday when she picked her vice president, couple of harris comes across horribly bad and even fake my dare. i say when she's at the stage, the moment when she called stage the moment. yeah,
10:43 pm
that's what i just said. when she calls are running, made and offers him the job, watch the do this with me. let's, let's do this together. would you be my roommate? and let's get this down the road. i would be honored that vice president, the joy that you're bringing back to the country, the of these. he has a miss out there. he'll be a privilege to date this with you across the country. we're going to do this. we'll go in and we're going to unifier and remind everyone that we are fighting for the future for everyone. so let's get up and get this done. okay. i'm sorry, but i see that i see stage. i see fake. i see somebody coming to her and so i got an idea. i know you already told them it was the bank, but why don't you pretend to call them back and we'll record it. and i, and most people with ethics would have said no, we don't stage things that would be a lie, but she kind of swallowed it, hook,
10:44 pm
line, and sinker. and i'm sorry, maybe it's me. maybe it's because i'm a journalist and i was trained and thought differently. but or maybe was the fact my parents out on me. that's b. s. you don't do stuff like that. and if, and if she's wanting to lie about that, what else are she want to lie about? i don't know, i'm a no, am i going overboard here? well rick, i, i agree with you and, and i, i, i think all those points are valid, however. yeah. however, let me play devil's advocate here. i have been in washington for quite some time, and i would argue that that this is just par for the course that all the politicians do stuff like that. everything is kind of stage every, any time they give an interview, everything's kind of already, you know, primed for them. so this is no different. but on top of that, you add that in 2024. the world lives on tick tock and social media. and you have to get that message out in this 32nd little video. and this is what this the thing we just saw with west cala harris and waltz is made for that is made to,
10:45 pm
to circulate on social media. so they kind of have to do it and the sad thing is the young people that are on tick tock or instagram or whatever, they know it's b. s. but they, it still resonates with them. and this is where the harris campaign wants to go is grab that, you vote that that biden had last call me crazy. but i will say this, i've now been in this business for something like 30 years graduated from the university of minnesota. eric summarized school of journalism. how 1980 or something like that. i have never in my life allowed anyone to know what i was gonna ask them before i sat down and interviewed them. i've never set my questions to anyone before i did an interview. it's add a theme it to me it's, it's an estimate of me. it's not what i stand for. it's not what journal is do. i don't stage, i don't say things and you know what? i like. oh, i see. when i look in the mirror, i don't like what i just saw in that video. so i stand by, i love the middle of we'll talk again tomorrow. breakfast that hey,
10:46 pm
this is why they're in dc and not hollywood. yeah. terrible actors or, or, or maybe because they're not real and they're not journalists, so we'll see you tomorrow. thanks kim. so we're, we're going to take a quick break, but you know, what, when we come back i, i want to talk to somebody who i'm always interested in talking to about some of the same issues that we were just talking about with manila. cuz he's got a very well, this is what he does. he's an analyst idea of political analyst. uh we're gonna be talking to marshall boda. he is standing, by golly, and he and i are going to go after this in just a little bit, lots to talk about, including israel and iran, which we didn't touch on. so stay right there were going to be right back. the water is a part of the is it
10:47 pm
a poly would post? isn't the deepest you of us in that in the word part? is it something deeper, more complex might be present there? let's stop without pieces. let's go to the product. as the little. yeah, they're like, oh yeah, which as nice deciding away and as i've said my, can you go in a little i know like where is it going blow up points other eventually i guess for the i'm assuming that the, the, the variable without any able to spell it was a big oh, the way of
10:48 pm
standing. what awesome, what. what's the zip code the mean? it's in the system. i go out and order the bill and that is the bulk of my us to avoid. yeah. yes there can you hear can true because i don't wanna wait. no, i'm not going to sit component the pro and it'd be defensive. what. what is the depth of where you live? short short. but it goes publishing very customer boy of yep . opinion, goods of today to initial another and significant that i would even the civil when i tried
10:49 pm
the alright, let's get to it. my next guest is a international relations expert security expert political analyst. the marks will vote us good enough to join us now to talk about some of the things that are going on in the world make. maybe we start with the election here in the united states. i know you're not in the united states, but i'm wondering how you're viewing this thing right now. obviously a lot of mistakes. i think maybe you would disagree with me on the part of a former president trump and that he's been taking the bait and talking about things that i don't think are helping him. and then we have this incident today with cala harris. essentially, just, i think staging something that is way beneath somebody who wants to hold that high office. your thoughts. i'm eminently amused, and a little bit sad, and that this is what the choice that the american people are presented with to choose as, as their leadership for the next 4 years. donald trump,
10:50 pm
or kamala harrison, is that really all that the american political system, you know, the $300.00 plus 1000000 people and, and that's what it comes down to. it's, it's, it's a little disappointing. and i think right now that the power vacuum that exists in the white house with the corpse of uncle bernie. i mean, uncle biden propped up by jake sullivan and anthony blanking is just not convincing . and a lot of countries around the world sense this power vacuum, this lamest of lame dock us presidencies. and it's, it's clear that kamala harris is not in charge and doesn't seem capable of taking charge. yeah, for the remainder of the bite in, nor biden's handlers administration,
10:51 pm
a lot of countries are looking to take advantage of that. you know, i gotta give her this though. she takes direct stage directions. well, in, not in that interview that i showed today that was horrible. but but, but generally speaking, i think she's gaining in the polls because she's listening to these producer slash advisors or tell her where to stand, where to sit, where to look, who to call on. and she's holding around doing that. unfortunately, none of that is real and when she gets into the real job, it's got to be real. no one stages for you, how to have a conversation with a she or put me, or modi or any of those guys. so, you know, it's, you're right. it's a little troubling at this point, and i'll tell you who is a lot more likely to eat the bind administration or what's left of it and her alive . she doesn't need to worry about me or mowdy or asian thing. she needs to
10:52 pm
worry about benjamin netanyahu because he's the one right now that senses the weakness and feels that he has the rains right now to, to just drive us here there, wherever he wants it. what, what do you think is going on there? yeah, i've been reading a lot lately and i know you do too about the internal situation inside of the inside of israel and there's a lot of in finding there. and it does seem like the met the yahoo, or the betting gets faction these hard line. more guys are winning, and they're taking the country to a place that i think will hurt both of them in the end and the united states. what are your thoughts? well unfortunately i, i think the majority of his railey politics in one form or another, whether they back and that yahoo personally, or gans, or their of a very, shall we say, right wing, re your guess fro uh, you know,
10:53 pm
hospitality and political spectrum right now. so it almost doesn't make a difference whether it's that yahoo or ganz or someone else. but if you take a look at it, is real in the past 2, roughly 2 weeks has attacked. yeah, mean me has attacked lab a non has attacked syria, and now they've attacked in an extremely embarrassing provocation. e. ron assassinating the lead diplomat, who was negotiating supposedly pushed by the united states with israel. uh, north of a hostage. is she? yes, yes. i mean was told so part administration said we're serious about as these fire were pushing it, and then what israel, the sides of the us backs just assassinated the chief diplomat. negotiating
10:54 pm
a ceasefire supposedly on the other side. yeah. does. does anyone take the us seriously with, with their reaction to this? any rod i mean, was on culture guest, right? is sacred. he was, i guess the state just for the inaugural ration of their new president, my sued, possess key and we're told it's supposed to be a reformer who wanted to employee relations with the west. well, there's no, there's not going to be any ceasefire and gods, and now there's not going to be any peace whether you're on an israel seems to be trying to just start in a range all conflagration, packing all of their neighbors. and the primary target of all of these provocations and attacks, it is not a ron, and it's not home us. it's you? yeah. well, do you remember the people, the, the pin, the u. s. government but the but the prayer trying to draw the us into
10:55 pm
a direct war with the rom that has always been there, a sab, that's sadly there's this close to it by the way, just to put a period on your point. i mean, the israelis and prime minister that would say that they insist and he came here instead of all we want is those hostages back we want those hostages back. let me just ask if he really wanted those hostages back, why would he assassinate the guy who's negotiating with the get the hostages back? think about that as crazy when you don't really want the hostages back, i would imagine, right? i mean, yeah, it's not a priority, it's not, it's definitely not a priority for you though they make it look, the polls all say that as soon as the conflict is over, the israeli people would like to see him gone. well, he's got every political motivation to continue the conflict. far into the future, he senses
10:56 pm
a complete power vacuum in the white house. the us congress just granted his genocide with 58 blood shilling ovation. he feels newly empowered and he sees a golden sun rise in the distance. that is a trump vance presidency. trump 2 point. oh that will support him even more than the by the administration. yeah. speaking of support, we're down to a minute, but i'm wondering what your thoughts are on ukraine. i know the way things are moving there right now. it looks just like a slaughter for russia, but there's talks of a deal. uh people talking. do you think we're close to that? no, no, no, no, we're, no, we're even close to really. oh, no one's talking seriously about it. it's all just noise. so. background chatter. so you don't think so. lensky isn't such a week in the state that he has. he, he will eventually capitulate to something even just allowing a conversation to happen with russians because up to now he just talk to himself.
10:57 pm
no, i don't believe there's any possibility of peace anywhere and in the near future if he tried to, if he wanted to and i don't believe he does. but if he tried, you would be killed by his own band, right, fascist and ultra nationalists. and they've threatened him again in the last month that if you engage isn't negotiations, but i think he's internalized at all at this point. and he's, he's absorbed every thing the west coast and pumped him up to be and uh he has, he has no intention. no, he's not even safer. beloved conceiving of an exit ramp. yeah, i guess it's good to be the king. even if you weren't chosen. um, but you're always a pleasure to talk to my friend we're out of time. we'll see you on the next time. thanks or have them. that's our show and then would always be looking outside your own box truths. they don't live in boxes. we like to say i'm rick sanchez, will be looking for you next to the

the we are in north of cities in the caucasus mountains where beautiful people have been coming together to celebrate the ancient traditions. since the beginning of time itself, where everything has a special symbolic meaning, armstrong thomas, this is in my visions. and today we're discovering of the world of a subject culture. the take a fresh look around. there's a life kaleidoscopic, isn't just a shifted reality distortion by power, tired vision with no real opinions. fixtures, design to simplify will confuse really once
10:59 pm
a better wills and then it just does. it shows you fractured images, present it is, but can you see through their illusion going underground can facility and you see where the honorable video of seville people tend, excuse me, little demon mode of my story. but as the very up to them would be for the 1st time it was me. so the the
11:00 pm
